Hi guys,
I've come across what appears to be a small bug in string_.h. When
cross-compiling my program from x86_64-linux-gnu to i386-mingw32 I get
this error:
i386-mingw32-g++ -DHAVE_CONFIG_H -I. -I../../..

from ../../../../../src/guis/wxwidgets/vec2.cpp:1:
../../../gnulib/src/string.h:82: error: expected `,' or `...' before
"__dest"
Now, string.h is generated from string_.h and line 82 seems to
correspond to string.h's line 53:
extern void *mempcpy (void *restrict __dest, void const *restrict __src,
size_t __n);
Now I can work around this by simply deleting `__dest' and `__src' from
the snippet above, but that is hardly the correct way to fix this.
Another thing which seems to fix this issue is to replace `restrict'
with `__restrict' as seems to be done in argp.h for instance. (In fact I
seem to remember having to delete argument names from argp.h in the
past.) ie.
extern void *mempcpy (void *__restrict __dest, void const *__restrict
__src,
size_t __n);
But as I'm not a gnulib developer I'm not certain if this is the correct
fix either. If it is, do the many other instances of `restrict' in
string_.h need to be altered too?
I hope this is helpful!
Kind regards,
Daniel Martin. (dacm)
